Hebrews 7:20-8:1

"To the Uttermost" - Heb 7:20-8:1

We pick back up in Hebrews 7, but with a little less emphasis on Melchizadek and a little more emphasis on Jesus.

But, now that we have made the connection, our author continues to drive home to his Jewish audience the need for and existence of a better high priest.

It is as if the author knew the future as he spoke of these issues only a short time before Jerusalem would be destroyed by the Romans in 70ad. Interestingly, there has not been a high priest according to geneology since then! The precise issue spoke of in this chapter came true!

All the while, Jesus remains, and will remain a high priest forever!

As we finish chapter 7, there will be some wonderful little nuggets to chew on, including the quote that gives rise to the sermon title. Jesus saves, "from the guttermost to the uttermost!"

If you know someone who has been in the "guttermost", then maybe you want to pick up the phone and invite them to....
